From the time the first wealthy American
industrialist built his summer home in Cobourg in the 1800s, the Town has been
recognized as housing some of Ontario's architectural gems.

The availability of skilled labour and its
excellent transportation access has allowed the town to maintain a diversified
and stable industrial base producing food, plastics, chemicals, auto parts and
wire and cable.

All the components that contribute to a
successful business - education, communications technology and a quality of
life second to none make Cobourg a desirable business location.
